The best and optimal watch order for My Hero Academia (MHA) which includes all the seasons, specials, movies, OVAs and spinoffs.

(Couldn't include the English name of the anime in the title as the word 'My' in it doesn't allow for it to be published as a public interest stack).

The consumption order for the movies etc. can be shuffled around a bit as they aren't really canon, but as far as possible, I'd like to recommend you to stick to this order.

Music videos for the music act Eve

Glorious Day is Eve's contribution to Project Voltage

Since 2020, I have been on a journey to complete every single Music type anime on MAL. As of 2025, there are nearly 4000 Music type anime on MAL with ~90% being possible to watch (excluding lost media, inaccessible media (live viewings, paywalls, etc.), or videos being struck down by copyright holders). And after 5 years of on and off progress, I can finally say that I've caught up to the most recent MVs as of making these interest stacks.

I present to you what I thought was the very best that MVs had to offer, including some meme entries that you may enjoy.

Other stacks:
Best of MAL Music - 1: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/64692 (Current page)
Best of MAL Music - 2: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/66735
Best of MAL Music - 3: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/66736

Best of MAL Music - 6: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/66739
Best of MAL Music - 7: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/66741

Title says it all.

Hope this stack helps. I personally had a hard time looking for music videos in this site, so that's why I'm creating this.

My only basis for music videos is if I've seen it and it's a...music video.

Pretty chill, ye?


Update #1: The music videos are arranged alphabetically. I'll update the stacks as long as I can and if still willing / interested to do so. You can see the rest of MAL's animated music videos if you search their database through the themes category. It's under music. Thank you for checking my interest stack out!!

Update #2: Animated MVs 1-3 is arranged as one (1) batch. Animated MV 4 onwards will be arranged as their own batches.

Update #3: Here are the other Animated Music Video Stacks attached below.
